Deprived of his three goalkeepers, Jean-Daniel Padovani, the goalkeeping coach of the Comoros, chose the defender of AC Ajaccio to take


Never has the name of the goalkeeper of the Comoros selection aroused so much interest.

While the island team is playing its very first round of 16 of the African Cup of Nations against the host country, Cameroon, it will approach this event without a professional goalkeeper.

The first fault is the injury of Salim Ben Boina, who plays as an amateur at Endoume Marseille (N 3, 5th division), hero of the match against Morocco, hit in the arm against Ghana following a shock with André Ayew.

Then the absences of the two other doormen, Moyadh Ousseini and Ali Ahamada, affected by the Covid-19. The 132nd nation in the world in this month's Fifa ranking tried to play Ali Ahamada, who had become negative since Monday morning, but came up against a change in the rules. CAF has issued a new directive which requires a positive player to remain isolated for five days. “Tested positive on January 22, the Comorian player must wait five days before taking the post-Covid-19 assessment and returning to the match after approval by the medical commission”, explains a CAF spokesperson.

Deprived of a goalkeeper, the Comoros had no choice but to put a field player in goal.

And the lucky winner is called Chaker Alhadhur, the defender of AC Ajaccio.

Aged 30, the one who has spent his entire career in France (Nantes, Bayonne, Caen, Châteauroux, AC Ajaccio) finds himself propelled into full light.
